Only massive clubs could pull that and it only worked once, Liverpool with Suarez this year. People on here, if you want some football knowledge I will charge £20 an hour but it will be worth it.

True dat homey true dat word.

You missed who has Victor played against, we had a **** easy start to the season.

True dat bro lets word up that post in 3 months homey.

That will again prove futile, chicken and egg, until we win things we can not promise European football and more success, the only way to start the process is to pay extreme wages to get the ball rolling, that wont happen so it wont happen with the retaining of players.

You mentioning those players clearly shows your age we have always done the academy route in the modern era solely because of our size, others do the same as well you know?

Code for now being far more pragmatic like other clubs of our ilk.

The old North Korean edit of the clapper, you merely highlight the problem that exists.

Code for the guy has a point.

Christ I never even had that faith when lego head was here, we are what we are, no small club has ever reached and stayed in the higher echelons of football, the waiting list is long and clubs like Newcastle, Leeds, Villa, Everton and possibly Sheffield Wednesday pose far better returns for large investment than we do. We are a great family club on the South Coast, I hate that lazy tired saying but we are that, I would love a billionaire prepared to spend it on the squad but it simply aint going to happen.

They are not my club but I hope they stay down there and even get relegated out of the football League, I dont want them to go out of business I simply want to laugh at them, much like your poor patter lad.

That was two paragraphs of nothing, supporting a team has nothing to do with being a part of reality and knowing the size of the club and what they can realistically achieve.

Anybody remember the dream team revolution of Ball and Mac? The Lowe era, new dawns are usually a **** mornings weather, this is Southampton, no other club in football history other than Blackburn (Walker pumped millions into them more than the Liebherrs even accounting for inflation) has tried to get into and stay there, the only way we could is by being bankrolled, the hockey player has said that will not happen so we have to be honest, top 10 and full tilt at the Cups is as good as its going to get. Other than that its delusion and a load of crap, sorry it really is, maybe our fans dont get out much and actually see the size of clubs we are up against, I know as I live near 4 large sides, two of them dwarf ours and you can not compare, one of them is an awful lot larger than us and the other one is being bankrolled by some of the richest men on the planet and have always been a large club with a large following, we need to get real.

I cant see Pochettino going there either, he is not good enough yet and fails to meet their expected criteria of winning domestically, in Europe and has been successful in the very best of the players in the World transfers, in fact Pochettino is so far off going there Neil Armstong was closer to the appointment when he was on the moon.

Denying themselves the truth for one and labelling others constantly, the others have a pretty good case to be concerned but the happier ones dont want to see it.

Really? How many games has Wanyama played, who against and when? Interesting stat though..................................

Typo sorry old chap.

Duncan with the greatest of respect your prophecies and insider knowledge today have not been that great mate, I would leave it.

Ha ha you may be surprised to know I am a genuine fan, I just dint share your view of optimism, you attacking me for my view says more about you than me. I am not optimistic for the future as we will have to invest to carry on the progress made, there has been no indication of that hence concern. Its not rocket science.

No I am saying they are poor footballers.

You work on them Trousers and share them with us shortly...............................

And Fox was a weak link even then, why did Celtic get rid of Hooiveld, him having no pace and spacial awareness (like Fox) has nothing to do with the standard you play.

I support Southampton and always will, I just dont share the bull****e hype over some signings and can see through new horizons, its crap and the only defence the ones who support this is that I am and others are not fans, dont be soft I just dont buy the propaganda and share the blind faith that some do, I simply put my view across.

Completely lost old boy.
